Complete Bookshelf

Here is a list of books that I've written for young readers, ‘tweens, and young adults. You may find copies of some of these books in your local library. If your library doesn't have the book you want, the librarian should be able to order it for you through inter-library loan. Most of the books listed below can be found that way.

You can learn more about these books and find readers' reviews on and/or Barnes and Noble. Out-of-print books are available through these websites. Other good websites to check for used and out-of-print books include Abebooks.com and BookFinder.com.

Aviva Granger

Aviva Granger is a “join custody” kid, living every other week with each of her parents. Through the years covered in the Rainbow Kid books (grades 6-8 for Aviva), Aviva’s parents become involved with other people and her “families” grow. During the same period, Aviva’s classmate and sometimes-enemy / sometimes-friend, Josh Greene, ends up in an orphanage. These five books are about the friendship between Aviva and Josh, their unconventional home lives, and the turmoil and joys of their pre-teens.
